First outing at the beach!














This weekend we went to Salt Creek for our first outing as a family. The weather was great and after an hour, we were finally out the door. I think I'm getting better at figuring out what to bring for the dog, the baby, Ryan, and me. It's definitely worth the effort when you are sitting on the sand getting some much needed fresh air and away from the laundry, dishes, bills, etc.

Winnie LOVED the sand and playing with his Dad. Payton sat under an umbrella and was very taken by the sound of the crashing waves. He did great and I can't wait until he's old enough to swim in the water and uncover rocks to look at the crabs and other fun stuff in the tide pools.
This week Gramma (my mom) is here and she did 3 night shifts for me so I could sleep. I slept more last night than I have in MONTHS! It's great to have her here and Payton sure loves his Grammy. OH! And Payton officially smiled at me today. Now I just have to capture it on camera....stay tuned!
